Ding ding dong—! Congratulations, you have achieved nine consecutive trial victories.

Please be careful, after the death of this Lava God's Apostle, its divided main body has perceived everything currently happening.

Something wants to spy on you?

Arrogance—

The demon's radiance completely enveloped the entire arena the moment the system prompt appeared.

Ding—Its eyes were pierced by the light of evil.

Ding dong! Please complete the twelve trials of this arena.

Ding dong! Do not worry, all restrictive rules have been exempted for the next three trials.

Note: Because you possess "Demon," the platform rules imposed special restrictions on you and matched you with unreasonable opponents. The system has forcibly intervened in this world's pseudo-Eris system, rejecting additional rule interference. In the upcoming trials, there will be no "rules." Wishing you smooth progress ahead.

"Heh, I'm not surprised at all."

The number of God's Apostles in this arena doesn't seem small at all.

In two consecutive trials, he encountered two of them.

These guys are more powerful than ordinary mutant monsters.

Ye Qiyan had initially wondered if all Train Conductors coming here would face this kind of rule-based targeting.

Now it seems, if it's because of the Card Sequence, it makes much more sense.

After all, if this place truly had nothing to do with gods, there wouldn't be so many God's Apostles appearing.

But the exact nature of the relationship, whether good or bad, can't be completely determined yet.

"However, I didn't expect the system to suddenly step in and resolve the rules."

Ye Qiyan stroked Arrogance, which he had recalled.

"It seems Card Sequence holders are relatively special existences among Train Conductors."

"Right."

He suddenly thought of something.

His gaze turned to the dazed Guide girl nearby.

"Willing to answer some questions for me?"

The Guide nodded woodenly.

She clearly hadn't recovered from Red Tears' sword strike yet.

She had never seen a wasteland traveler entering this Stellar Core Arena for the first time possess such strength.

This is strange, right?

So powerful, why hasn't he entered the Lunar Heart Level?

The Guide girl's mind suddenly recalled some words spoken by several Train Conductors she had guided before.

"Is it because of the train level? But... these wasteland travelers, don't they become stronger as their train level increases? Him?"

"So, did you hear what I said?"

Ye Qiyan's voice reached her ears.

The Guide subconsciously shook her head.

"No, sorry, could you repeat that?"

"The Nether King Eris you mentioned, does she call herself a god?"

"No, the great Nether Flower, King of the Netherworld, Lady Eris, she... is not a god. Moreover, she doesn't particularly like gods. Sometimes, even some weaker gods get forcibly dragged into Solar Corona Level arenas by her. As I said, entering the arena, unless you achieve consecutive victories until the end, or... like you all who possess trains, there's absolutely no way to leave."

Not a god?

That makes sense.

Those chaotic fellows all add that "god" title to their names.

Huh? So that means, that Nether King called Eris might not necessarily be on the same side as the gods?

An ally of the train system? Otherwise, why is it that only Train Conductors can leave directly after completing one set of twelve trials?

Plus, there's the clumsy imitation of the wasteland here.

What role does that Nether King called Eris play between the gods and the system?

This question cannot be answered for now.

Ye Qiyan stretched comfortably.

He looked around.

Apart from the Stone Man Apostle's Guide who was looking at his Guide with envious and even jealous eyes, the other alien monsters had already been completely defeated by Raven and Eve and the others.

They weren't powerful.

This is normal.

What capabilities could a group staying in an oasis, using summoned creatures to avoid competition, unable to continue forward, possibly have?

Slaughter, crush, devour.

Ye Qiyan used Black Ebony's plunder ability to replenish his spirit and stamina to full, released Gluttony, and after the Demon Ravens had eaten some fragments of flesh, let a portion of the intact alien monsters enter Gluttony's stomach.

Besides that, there were the props and weapons they used.

Ye Qiyan selected some of the more ordinary props and threw them into the black market Trading Platform.

The rest, he let Eve choose for itself, to replace its thirty-six slots.

Perhaps influenced by Ye Qiyan, most of what Eve selected were ranged weapons.

Flame crossbows, staffs that release lightning magic, flails for throwing...

Various items, replacing fifteen of the thirty-six slots.

After the Guide provided the coordinates for tomorrow, Ye Qiyan performed Sublimation on the weapons above level five among them.

Consider it a special enhancement for Eve.

Night fell.

Ye Qiyan didn't return to the Train to rest.

He lay on the train roof, gazing at the brilliantly dazzling Milky Way in the sky above, drinking juice made from Nether Spirit Flower sap mixed with crushed White Forest Fruit and added ice.

"Caw~ Caw~"

The increasingly large Demon Ravens played in mid-air with the Goshawk, which had grown considerably again.

The Demon Ravens were different from Red Tears and the Raven demon.

Unconsciously, they had gained some wisdom and consciousness.

Usually, when idle, their favorite activity was teasing the useless Goshawk.

And the Goshawk~ it liked to bully the little bear cub that was weaker than itself.

"Come down."

A soft call.

The Raven released its claws gripping the Goshawk, letting it come before Ye Qiyan.

The Goshawk flapped its wings, its nearly two-meter wingspan making it hard to imagine this guy was still in its growth phase.

[Secret Art: Thunderclap Goshawk (Growing++)]

[Awakened the thunder attribute bloodline of the Goshawk Royal Family, can use some inherited secret arts]

[Current: Claw, Screech, Divine Bird Assault, Furious Thunder]

Looking at the identification Light Screen's description of it, the two plus signs after [Growing] seemed to be telling Ye Qiyan.

It could undergo Sublimation again.

"Still growing, huh. Don't know if giving you so many sublimations will eventually make you somewhat useful."

Pinching the Goshawk's beak, Ye Qiyan's words sounded somewhat disdainful.

But his hand was already pressed against the Goshawk's head.

[Sublimation—]

Talent activated.

Azure blue light flowed from Ye Qiyan's fingertips, pouring into its body.

In an instant, the golden thunderlight hidden within its feathers began spreading throughout its entire body.

[Stamina: 170→150] [Spirit: 210→180]

[Sublimation successful]

[Secret Art: Thunderclap Goshawk → Sky-Resonant Thunder Eagle (Growing)]
